Dustin Poirier, a seasoned fighter who has shared the octagon with both Conor McGregor and Michael Chandler, recently offered his insights on their upcoming clash at UFC 303. Let’s break down his analysis and predictions.

Dustin Poirier has faced Conor McGregor three times in the past. Their first encounter was at UFC 178 in 2014, where McGregor secured a first-round TKO victory. However, Poirier got his revenge at UFC 257 in January 2021, knocking out McGregor in the second round. Their trilogy concluded at UFC 264, with Poirier winning via first-round TKO after McGregor suffered a broken leg.

Meanwhile, Poirier also fought Michael Chandler at UFC 281 in November 2022, defeating him via third-round submission. Now, as McGregor and Chandler prepare to step back into the octagon, Poirier has shared his thoughts on their matchup.

Dustin Poirier Counts on Conor McGregor To Win Against Chandler

Poirier believes that if Conor McGregor returns in top form—both in terms of timing and rhythm—he will have the upper hand against Chandler. He describes McGregor as a “sniper” and highlights Chandler’s tendency to cover distance with big movements.

According to Poirier, this approach could be risky when facing someone like McGregor, who can capitalize on openings and deliver powerful shots. Poirier stated, “The way Chandler covers distance with big movements against a sniper like Conor, you’re going to run into something big, and you can’t take those shots.”

He further adds, “Chandler’s had a long career. He’s been hurt a lot. I’m not saying he’s chinny, but you can’t cover distance with a sniper like Conor. If he’s like he was, he’s going to knock Chandler out”.

UFC 303 promises an exciting showdown between two elite fighters. McGregor, known for his striking prowess, aims to make a triumphant return after a three-year hiatus from mixed martial arts. On the other hand, Chandler, a former Bellator champion, seeks redemption following his loss to Poirier.

The clash between these two styles—McGregor’s precision striking and Chandler’s aggressive approach—will undoubtedly captivate fans and determine the next contender in the lightweight division.
